Oh, thank Bob NorthStar's on that horrid buck that's sucked from the first wave! That's exactly what everyone was wanting!

ugh... Aurora and North Star will be switcheroo running changes in case ratios too like C&D ? damn it

Aw man, I didn't notice that at first with him hunched over, but now it's obvious. Bummer. Now I don't care that he's a running change...I don't want him, and don't want Aurora without him, so saved $20!

Yes, this makes no sense to me. It's fine to do with Abomination/A-Bomb since those are separate characters that are not a duo, or to do Archangel/Death or Blastaar/energy hands Blastaar since those are different versions of the same character. It doesn't make sense to have Cloak without Dagger or vice versa, and with the crappy MU distribution, who knows if you'll be able to find both? Aurora and Northstar aren't quite as essential as a duo as C&D, but I'd still think that anyone who wants one probably wants both since there's a good chance that person is an Alpha Flight fan.

Technically his buck is from the third wave (Black Costume Spider-Man) not the first wave.

We should probably be thankful that it isn't one of the first wave bucks such as the Silver Surfer/Human Torch/Skrull buck or the Daredevil/Bullseye/Union Jack buck.
I'll take the Black Costume Spidey/Iceman/Archangel/Quicksilver buck over those two any day.

Heh, I more meant that you didn't always see Aurora and Northstar together like you do Cloak and Dagger. Were Cloak and Dagger ever separated for a significant period of time aside from Maximum Carnage?

I wonder if it is just some way to save money on packaging?
The Elektra wave has the tri-lingual packaging.

MSRP on Wolvie figs - $5.99. Someone should tell TRU that.

Nova available: NOW - I wish

Grim Reaper & Hyperion for 2014 reveals
3 packs are done... mostly due to them repacking characters everyone already had :p

No torso joints on Reaper or Hyperion as far as my eye can see.

Doesn't look like Hypie's ankles move either.

That sucks.

Oh and that Tony Stark will be an Amazon.com exclusive

Well those are prototype pics so hopefully Hyperion will have ankle joints.
Grim Reaper looks like he will use the MU Tigershark body.

I'm going to ask a question I've wondered for a long time. It's not MU specific, but since hasbro is acting like we should be all excited about variants...

Does anyone *enjoy* hunting variants? I'm seriously asking, because it seems like another layer of annoyance that just serves to line resellers' pockets, but the companies insist people love "the thrill of the hunt."
